Carroll on that Chicharito partnership
The pair have partnered one another up front for just 78 minutes as a twin strike force so far this season but the target man believes the pair of them can prove a hit.
Despite the awful display against Swansea AC and Little Pea were played together but it wasn’t until Diafra Sakho appeared that the game was won by his late late strike.
However, Carroll – having disregarded that – has told the official website: “He’s got to play up front, that’s his position, and the manager has said that himself.
That would lead to a 4-4-2 if he’s playing like that and I’m confident we can work well together.
“We obviously played 4-4-2 last week [against Swansea] and it worked. Who knows [what the manager will do at Burnley on Saturday]? We’ll just do what comes, but obviously I’m confident playing with him in any formation.
“He’s obviously a great player and I’d love to play up top with him.”
